The vast majority of drugs sold in the US have extremely inflated prices. I know of drugs that are $2 a pop overseas and $200 here.

I’m not sure if there’s enough sales to attract a generic manufacturer or of the controlled distribution would make it difficult. It looks like the sleazeball figured all of the angles.

Ah....”used to treat malaria”...that’s the key.
Just like banning DDT.
Malaria kills millions in the 3rd world each year and the Population Control crowd wants to keep it that way.

This stuff! It's the best ever...I had a patch of dermatitis on my collarbone area, and it took care of it. It's at Sam's Club and Amazon...

Drug Business is BIG business.
Keep pouring the Ritalin into those little kids.

Go to the local feed store and get a can of Bag Balm. Best stuff ever created for skin conditions.

It is amazing how much cheaper veterinarian supplies are than humans supplies even though they come from the same assembly line / process...
you got that one right, no wonder canned dog and cat food goes so well with barbecue sauce.

I should have become a Veterinarian.... I had a roommate in college that always wanted to be a veterinarian. He got very good grades in college but got turned down by all of the big veterinarian schools because the competition was too stiff. He ended up going to medical school instead.
For the past 25 years he has been a surgeon in Houston.

Yes on the bag balm. Hubby is a retired firefighter watershed expert. He was always on the first strike team out anywhere out here. He always carried a couple of them in his pack. One for him and one for his crew to pass around.

You’re very welcome.
Sam’s club is always selling out, so when I find it there, I buy multiple jars.

Why no generic? Apparently Turing Pharmaceuticals tightly controls distribution of the drug so no potential manufacturer of a generic equivalent can get samples of the original drug to do the testing needed to show that the generic equivalent is really equivalent to the original.
Turing Pharmaceuticals is playing into the hands of Hillary's attack on drug prices, and may do serious damage to the pharma companies who actually are innovating. The people who developed the new $$$$ Hep C drug came up with a novel drug for a serious disease. Turing Pharmaceuticals is just gaming the regulatory system.
